SALES 2.0 CONFERENCE • @Sales20Conf / #S20c • APRIL 2-3, 2012
Lies, damn lies and…
SALES 2.0 CONFERENCE • @Sales20Conf / #S20c • APRIL 2-3, 2012
Just because you can track it:
•doesn’t mean you should
•doesn’t mean it’s important
•doesn’t mean it should be on your exec dashboard
Choose the right metrics to drive your business to higher sales, greater pipeline yield and
profitability
The Slippery Slope…
SALES 2.0 CONFERENCE • @Sales20Conf / #S20c • APRIL 2-3, 2012

How do you define a “nurture” lead?
What # and % of deals come out of the growing nurture database?
